Meh, I still find that cringe. It’s like Injustice Superman and The Batman Who Laughs, both of whom are extremely cringe.
Injustice Superman is cringe because he doesn't have a good reason to be evil in the first place and BWL is cringe because he is edgy as ****, not just evil

Definitely. Both were aight when they came out, but just became annoying when DC milked them as dry as the sahara

Injustice comic was good tho
It's one of those things where I think it takes a terrible idea and actually makes something good out of it. (Despite the fact it has a lot of character assassination)
 
I feel like something happening to your family, especially your wife and unborn child, would qualify as something terrible happening to you as well
Only who walks on ember can feels it, no matter how much Superman loved his wife and unborn child there's no way he felt worse than what Kaneki felt here

everyone decide to cry for boros these days lol.
how can a character that is literally zero relevant to the anime be so.....?
 
Injustice Superman sucks. It's based on the faulty idea that Superman is only good for people like Lois, but the moment she starts pushing up daisies he goes insane. That is wildly inconsistent with Superman's character. If Superman was more accurate to his character, he'd probably still be Superman. Yes, of course he'd be sad, but he'd still be Superman. Alan Moore's For the Man Who Has Everything captures a Superman that gives up a perfect life, with a wife and a son, to be Superman. If he can continue to be Superman and choose to leave that illusion that felt real behind to be Superman, I don't see how he'd go sicko mode for losing Lois and his unborn child in Injustice aside from it being character assassination.

I'd recommend a couple of videos by Overly Sarcastic Productions that cover Superman as a character, and also show why stuff like Injustice and Zack Snyder's DCEU fundamentally misunderstand and fail to accurately represent Superman.

And yes, I'm still on the topic of Superman even in a OPM thread.

******* exactly. Grant Morrison said something to this effect as well.

I love OSP. Actually how I found out I'm ace.

I have one contension though. Snyder's take is fine. Not every Superman has to be the same, especially seeing as Superman is a painfully boring Mary Sue 99.99% of the time. It's when a series tries, and fails to understand that OG Superman (like Injustice), that I take problem with it.
 
Also can we make a CRT for Possibly High 3A Saitama due to being confirmed to have traveled at least FTL+ and Genos stating the General Theory of Relativity is an actual part of the OPM verse.

I feel all of that except Superman being a painfully boring Mary Sue.
